Earthquake Fund.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-The Consul
General OF the United States at Shanghai
reports that 81 ,260 has been contributed
bv the Chinese In that city FOR the
Charleston sufferers. When the particu-
lars of the earthquake reached Shanghai
the American residents there at once
made up fund among themselves, and p
was suggested that the Consul General
should invite the Chinese 10 subscribe
but this the officer refused to do on the
ground that tho indescribable suffering
caused in Northern China by foods de-
manded the attention OF the charitable
Chinese throughout the empire. In
Shanghai especially had the calls for aid
been most generously responded
to. Notwithstanding this certain
Chinese gentlemen took IL upon
themselves to solicit subscriptions
for Charleston and raised the above sum,
which was placed in the Consul Generals
hands TO be forwarded. The gentlemen
whose efforts secured this generous result
are Rev. Hoong Neck Woo, OF tue Episco-
pal mission, Yang King Tux. compradere
OF Russell ~ Co., and 10 Yang Woo, in.

The Dutu of Democrats.

The Albany Democrat gives this
timely and sensible advice to the Dem,
ocratic legislators now in session at
Salem.
The Democratic member of Legi s
lature should bear in mind that while
it is true that the Republicans have a
majority in both branches of the Leg
islature, yet we have practically a
Democratic state administration and
it will be held largely responsible for
any extrayigant legislation, and hence
it behooves the Democratic members
and Governor to be on guard. See
that no such extravagant appropna-
tions as were made by the last Legis-
lature are made at this session. Bear
in mind that if a Democratic Govern
or shall approve bills appropriating
more than $600,000 as was done bV
Gov. Moody during the last two years,
that howl from the tax payers will
go up that will shake the foundation
of the Capitol itself "By their works
shall ye know them" is as safe critic
riou to Judge men by in civil affairs as
in divine matter Let us have safe
economical administration and the peo-
pie will heartily say well done good
and faithful servants

.eHoR READESk rHone,,

'Tis one thing now to read the bible through.
Another thing to read, to learn and do;
'Tis one thing now to read it with delight.
And quite another thing to read it right.
Some read it with design TO learn to read.
But to the subject pay but little heed,
Some read it as their duty once week,
But no instruction from the Bible seek.
Whilst Others read it without common care.
With no regard to how they read nor where.
Some read it as history to know
Howpeople lived three thousand years ago.
Some read to bring themselves repute,
By showing how they can dispute;
| Whilst Others read because their neighbors do.
To see how long twill take 10 read il through.
Some read 1t for the wonders that are there,
How David killed a lion and bear;
Whilst others-or rather in ii look,
Because, perhaps, they have no other book.
Some read the blessed Book-they don'l
| know why,
1t somehow happens in the way 10 lie;
Whilst others ii with uncommon care,
But all to find some contradictions there.
One reads with fathers specs upon his head
And sees the thing just as his father did;
Il Another reads through Campbell or through
Scott,
And thinks itmeans exactly what they though
Some read to prove pre-adopted creed;
Thus understand but little that they read;
And every passage in the book they bend
To make it suit that all important end.
Some people read as have often thought
To teach the book instead Of being taught.

EMMIGRATION WESTWARD.

The indications are that travel west
ward from the old eastern states will
be greater next season than it has been
for years. The following from the
Indianapolis News shows that there
will be considerable emigration from
that section of the union during 1887:
Passenger agents say that next
spring will witness the largest emigra-
ton movement known since the days
of the old Ohio company. In some
communities the entire population IN
a body seems to be talking Of going
west The emigrant's face is turned
to the northwest. Washington terri
tory and Oregon seem suddenly to
have been transformed, in the minds
of the movers, to the garden spot OF
the world. The opening of the North
EN- Pacific railroad has contributed to
the population of these regions more
than any other agency. The local rep
resentative of this company says that
the expectation is that $4,000 emf
grants will go into Washington Terri
tory in the spring, and his company
has such faith in these numbers that
it is preparing itself to accommodate
vast bodies Of travellers accordingly. "

TIE REMAISING aRE1Ico

The Oregonian speaks this compli-
mentary of John Randolph fuckers
speech upon the Mormon question.
cat last measures are to be taken
for dealing with Mormonism which
will be both summary and effective.
For long time nothing has occurred
in congress more deeply interesting
than the debate on Wednesday upon
the new bill for suppression of polyg-
amy. The speech Of Tucker of Virginia
was especially fine and effective. His
Illustration from the words of the
founder of Christianity, as applied to
the Mormon abomination, was origi-
nal, and it was presented with dramat-
ic force. For this cause shall man
leave his father and his mother and
cleave unto his wife, and they twain
shall be one flesh And he added,
''they twain, and not whole bundle

The law, as passed by the house,
without even call for the ayes and
noes, is by far the most rigorous act
ever passed for the extirpation of Nor.
monism. Administered as it ought to
be, it will destroy this pernicous evil
root and branch. If there is rebellion
against it, there should be employ
ment of military force to make lts
destruction the more speedy and com
plete. The polygamous Mormons are
to be left with no political power
whatever, and there is to be no further
temporizing with them.
Thirty years ago the republican par
ty took its stand against the twin rel
les of barbarism,- m,-slavery ard polyga
my. 1t abolished slavery, the greater
because more widespread evil, and it
made many tentative efforts for aboli
ton of polygamy, which failed because
they were not radical enough. Occupied
with the greater evil and its conse
quences, it was not able to deal with th,
lesser evil with the vigor and rigo
which the conditions required. Blu
now, in the attack upon the survivin,
relic,' polygamy, it has the earnes
support of those who upheld the othe
evil, slavery; and it is a real gratifca
ton to observe that the most powerful
speech in congress against the still SUI
viving relic of barbarism comes from
member who was one of the mos
ardent supporters and defenders of tn
relic which happily is no more.

My dear Sir: On this day, when you

passed through this great trial.

Saturday or Sunday Uhtch?

Quite spirited debate has Leen
going on at Coquille City between the
Christian church ministers and Elder
Bunch as to the proper day to keep
holy, Saturday or Sunday. It would
be we'll for these brethren 70 insist up
on the non-Sabbath keepers to keep
one OF both holy, rather than to try and
unlock the pages of antiquity without
key. Religion, common sense, and
the laws of health tell us to keep one
day in seven, and in our country it is
customary to keep Sunday, hence that
is the proper day. In other countries
you would be under obligation to keep
other days. There is no use of strad
ding hobby of any kind and trying
to ride it to heaven, to neglect of other
important duties.

ROsEBURG REVIEW
FRIDAY. JANUARY, 81, 1887.
THE FEDERAL COURTS.

Gov. Pennoyers message relating to
the Federal courts is about correct.
The document is said to be III advance
of our day, and SO it is, but that is no
valid objections to the address, and
what it contains. In ten years from
to-day, many men will say, "that is
correct, and just what Pennoyer SAID
in his first message to the Legislature
Jan. 18th, 1887" The Evening Dem
ocrat speaks wisely in regard to the
first mentioned afte. this style.
A strong feature of the message of
Gov. Pennoyer is that which urges the
necessitv of curtailing the jurisdiction
and stopping the encroachments OF the
Federal Judiciary. As the governor
forciblY points out, thev are drawing
everything into their jurisdiction and
are gradually crippling the state Sc
that the U. S. circuit judge is the SOY
ereign instead of the state. In some
cases the encroachment is usurpation
as in the matter Of restraining oul
sheriffs from collecting state taxes
from Cinnamon and other aliens. He
recommends petition by the legislature
to congress for redress of these griev
ances and suggestsco-incident petitions
by other state Legislatures. The U
S. courts have long since been dubbed
the RAILROAD Barons' Court" ane
they are in many cases TIE strongholds
and forts of powerful monopoly, mosi
dangerous to the rights of the people
But so, III fact, are the state courts in
many states, which are becoming the
fortressess and engines of the smaller
robber barons of the state. Yet the
people of state can reach and rectify
the wrongs done by the state courts
and Judges. They have them at home
and can inagurate agencies by which
the agents of these small robber baron:
can be quickly shorn Of their power
and replaced by honest men. This
they can not do as to the U. S. judges
Therefore it is we'll to prevent thes'
encroachments of the Federal judiciar,
and already one measure of relief il
the shape of bill in .he house ha
been offered to compel foreign corpora
tions doing business here to take out
license forfeitable upon bringing an
suit in the U. S. courts.

that is, if Mitchell is not SO entirely
